    Welcome to fantasy, as a fantasy player there are just a few rules to remember when asking for advice or team ratings. How big is your league, how many of your players play each week, and what is your league setup (roto, h2h, h2h points). That said your team looks good in Blocks and rebounds and should do well in asts although your Sg's won't provide many while Odom is above average from the center. Also both of your SG's are going to destroy your FG% but Durant did start making better decisions towards the end of the year.

    I hope that Marion plays well for you. I drafted him last year with the 3rd overall pick and he ended up fizzling out last year and not even playing for the last month or so. Luckily, I traded him for Boozer right before that happened.

    He could be great, as long as he's happy.

    You might beat Davis' squad, but I'll be surprised if I don't run the table against you.

    In all seriousness, good luck! (Just not against me.) :cheers:

    I will beat you in FG%, FT%, ASST, REB and BLKS.

    At minimum I beat you 5-4.

    And yeah. Cheers.

    You'll probably be hurting in FG%, FT%, Assists. Strong in Reb/Blk. Not sure about steals, turnovers. Average in 3PTM.

    It's okay, but Howard kills your FT% like Shaq used to. Who did you use your first-round pick on? I don't see anyone worth a first rounder on your roster.

    I'm guessing there are 10 or 12 teams in this league. Correct?

    With Okafor and Howard, your FT is not going to be good, but you have a good supply of rebounding big men. Also, while you have Roy and McGrady who will provide a decent amount of assists, you are lacking a true PG2 behind Calderon.

    Outside of Wallace you don't have any elite stealers, but you shouldn't suffer too bad in that category (should be okay). Blocks won't be a problem. Bench is kind of weak. I don't like starting anyone who doesn't actually start on their team (aka Stuckey) and while he has shown to be quite a player last year, he's still behind Billups and Hamilton.

    I'd say that it is not a team I would have drafted (I'd probably avoid Okafor since he doesn't help you much in FG% like big men should), but it isn't horrible either. Middle of the pack-ish.
